Benzema wants Spain

Karim Benzema has admitted that he would prefer to play in either the Italian or Spanish leagues as opposed to England. Man Utd are reportedly interested in signing the young Frenchman.

"I like the Spanish and Italian leagues," he told Don Balon.

"The Premier League does not hold too much attraction to me.

"Although they have great teams and I consider that I could play there, the style of game they play does not attract me.

"I love La Liga because they play beautiful football there.

"As far as football is concerned, Barca are the team I prefer today because they play it on touch."
